Heated Gutters Prevent Damage

During harsh winters, ice damming and other snow conditions can lead to costly damage to your home. With a heated gutter system, you can prevent snow and ice build-up on your roof’s edges, which can be a hazard for people below and can cause the gutters to pull away from your home, crack, or fall off.

How a Heated Gutter System Works

A heated gutter system uses self-regulating heat tape that is threaded into your gutters and downspouts to warm the gutter during winter. The heat tape is thermostatically controlled, meaning it will only use as much energy as necessary to keep the gutters from freezing, and it will adjust to outside temperatures.

Installation and Maintenance of Heated Gutters

Heated gutters are easy to install and maintain. All you need to do is thread the self-regulating heat tape into your gutters and downspouts. The heat tape is designed to last for years and does not require regular maintenance.

When installing heat tape, there are many things to consider. One aspect to examine is spacing, depending on the roof’s pitch and the soffit’s length. We install the heated cable into your gutters and downspouts. The preferred method is to install the heat cable under a gutter guard. We strongly recommend a gutter guard because it can protect the cable and help trap the heat —making the entire system function more effectively. Using this method will help prevent many concerns associated with ice dams.

To power the heat tape, a premade length of heat tape or a GFCI Plug-in cord-set can be connected to an existing outdoor outlet —eliminating the need to hardwire. If there is no existing outdoor outlet, or your particular setup makes these options impractical, we may suggest that you consult an electrician for the final power hookup.
